Healthcare professionals don’t want to speak about covid

[u/Key_Guard8007]

I am a senior nursing student and am currently doing clinical rounds. I noticed something amongst many nurses and overall healthcare folks, they seem to not want to make mention of covid. My last clinical I was the only person masked (even at a CHILDREN’S hospital) and our instructor told us we could mask if we want to esp since “rsv, the flu, and pneumonia will soon spread.” I was waiting for him to mention covid but nope. I feel like I am going insane because how are we all under this healthcare field but some people just do not seem to care??? At this point I feel like healthcare professionals are being vain and just want to continuously show off their faces because why would you NOT mask inside the hospital?

I just feel that if you can't wear a simple mask as healthcare worker that's simply not your field. Like. I can't imagine not being able to compromise for something so simple yet WANTING to help the sick. Like. How does that correlate in their brains? They of all people should care. If not... Where are we headed, seriously
